To use the Get-Help function inside PowerShell, run the following steps:
- Launch a PowerShell prompt.
- Type Get-Help.
- You're finished! No, I'm just kidding. Using Get-Help by itself will present you with some helpful data about the Get-Help command, but that's not really what we are looking for, is it? How about using Get-Help with a search parameter, like this:
Get-Help Computer
Cool! That searched the available cmdlets and presented us with a list of the ones that contain the word Computer. Nice!
- Now, what if we wanted to find out some more particular information about one of these cmdlets? Maybe about Restart-Computer ...
